Well, I'm quite happy with the size of my Toshiba Satellite's keyboard.
Like the IBM thinkpads, they feel nearly "full size" but don't take much
room.

I think IBM had a keyboard where the keys move down into the machine
when you close it. Maybe that's what the Thinkpads do.

It's the screen the I'd _really_ like folded. A screen large enough to
viewed for hours currently makes for too large a laptop.
